2. Application to Join Primary Server
2.1 Priority Access
We wish everyone could play all at once. Unfortunately, we have limited server space on the Server. Therefore, users typically need to enter a queue prior to be letting into the Server. We offer Priority Access, which may allow users to move up the queue and access the Server(s) faster. There are five levels of Priority Access and the higher the level of Priority Access, the quicker you will be able to access the Server(s). You may purchase Priority Access via our nopixel Store. Please keep in mind that in the event you purchase any level of Priority Access, you still may not be able to access the Server at any given time for various reasons (the Server may be full, down for maintenance, etc.). Therefore, we make no representation, warranty, or guarantee that you will be able to access the Server at any given time, even if you do purchase Priority Access and you acknowledge and agree that you are not purchasing Priority Access on the basis of any such representation, warranty, or guarantee.
To maintain any level of Priority Access, you are required to pay the monthly recurring fee. We may update these fees at any time, in our sole discretion, upon notice. You may cancel your Priority Access at any time by following the instructions found here. Cancellations are processed via Tebex, and we are not responsible for any delays with respect to cancellations.
For more information about cancelling your Priority Access and recurring fees and other transactions, please see Section 8 of these Terms.
